Lucy Cattle Dog & Pointer Mix Decatur, GA

Please contact ADOPTION (adopt@doggieharmony.org) for more information about this pet.Lucy loves people, but asks for a few minutes of getting to know you. She is great with older kids (10 and 7) in foster, but she doesn't know her size and might knock over a small child. She was kept outside and mistreated for most of her life, so she will need some patience and understanding as she adjusts.

Lucy is very smart and eager to please, so I expect her to take to training well. She is mostly house trained and will sit comfortably in a crate or a room by herself. Although she does prefer to be where the action is. More than anything, she needs positive reinforcement and love.

Lucy doesn't quite know how to approach other dogs for play, so she barks at first. But she can be very submissive once she feels safe. Basic obedience and social training are all she needs to grow into a perfect, loving companion.
